Word Wall

As you are reading your stories, I would like you to build a list of new vocabulary terms.  We know what the "rule of five" looks like for a good fit book. Keeping that rule in mind lets try to see if we can find one "new" or "challenging" word for each page that we read.  Once you have located that word, please write it down in your duotang.

Following your reading session, you will add that tricky word to your word wall. Please make sure you indicate the page # it is on and you give a brief definition of what the word means.

I have included an example here for you.

This post should include text and graphics.

Change....

The last couple of chapters in Four Seasons of Patrick have been focused on change.  Patrick isn't the biggest fan of this change and has made that quite clear.  As humans, it is our natural reaction to not like change.  We usually are creatures of habit and we like things to be a certain way.

Todays Assignment: On your blog, please post about a time in your life where you were forced to make a change that you weren't a big fan of.  Your post should include both text and graphics.  Please see the example post below that I made.  

Voki Character

Journey to the Center of The Earth

My Fictional Character

In the Mighty Ducks movies the character that most interested me was Charlie Conway.  He was the main character in the story and I really admired how hard he worked.  His mom and dad got divorced and his Dad wasn't around when he grew up. He wasn't the best player but he tried the hardest and was named captain of his team. He also scored the game winning goal against the Hawks on a penalty shot.  

Here is a picture and a video of Charlie.
